But I'm probably the same way.

After all, he was right in front of it, and it had become so powerful that it could easily kill him.

I have no chance of surviving.

Shiori Fujiwara sighed.

It's such a pity that I didn't get to hug Shino in the end.

I don't know if Shino listened to me and left this place to escape to a safe place.

As Fujiwara Shiori retreated, making a final effort to survive, she looked in the direction where Shino and Mako had left, her eyes widening in surprise.

Shino hadn't left at all; she was still in the same spot, running towards him.

Jasmine held her tightly, trying to stop her, but she still raised the gun in her hand and fired angrily and powerlessly at the Green Demon.

What's wrong with you? Can't you just listen to me?

Doesn't your behavior show that all the authority I try so hard to maintain is completely useless?

Fujiwara Shiori gave a wry smile and swung her hand, smashing the pistol at the Blue Oni.

The green demon looked at her mockingly, watching her retreat, then swung its giant claw down, throwing out a ball of bluish-white light.

She narrowly avoided it, and a huge crater instantly appeared where the light struck.

"Die!"

The blue demon roared again.

It swung its weapon again, this time producing more than a dozen clusters of blue light, densely packed without any gaps.

Shiori Fujiwara also quickened her pace to dodge, but she was still enveloped in the impenetrable light, leaving her no room to escape.

Helpless, she sighed and closed her eyes.

If you die, just die.

I just hope the shrine's support will arrive soon, so that at least my sister and the others can be saved.

As if confirming her thoughts, a figure appeared in front of her.

"Face Hayate!"

He let out a low shout, drew his sword, and unleashed a gust of wind that transformed into a towering wall of wind, blocking all the azure light.

The blue demon stared in utter astonishment at the suddenly appearing youth.

Morikawa Yu shook his head, took a step forward and slashed down, leaping into the air and bringing his blade down on its forehead.

"Roar!" The blue demon opened its mouth again, trying to use the same trick to bite Morikawa Yu's katana.

But this time, it was surprised to find that the long knife it was biting was gathering a biting cold wind, which shattered all its teeth and pierced its throat.

Morikawa Yu pulled the Mikazuki sword out of its throat and kicked it down, knocking it to the ground.

The blue demon's body crashed to the ground.

It struggled to get up, but a clear light, like the bright moon, appeared before its eyes.

Morikawa Yu held the Mikazuki in her hand, looking at it with a cold gaze.

He could see words above the head of the bluish-white demon that read, "Proof of Life".

The following explanation is that "it fought with all its might to avenge its enemy for its best friend."

It seems that this demon's friend was killed by Fujiwara Shiori, which is why he resolved to take revenge on her.

But so what?

He believed in Shiori Fujiwara.

This lazy young lady never does anything unnecessary and is very upright. Even if she killed this evil spirit's best friend, that best friend was probably no good either.

Not to mention, this explanation is so ambiguous.

Its perceived enemy is not necessarily a real enemy, but rather a figment of its imagination!

There is absolutely no need for me to be lenient with it.

He snorted coldly, raised the crescent moon, stepped forward and slashed, severing its arm directly.

He raised his knife again, when he suddenly heard Fujiwara Shiori's voice behind him.

"Please wait! Mr. Morikawa!"

Chapter 235 You're a Great Swordsman!? (5000 words)

Morikawa Yu stopped, but still held the knife to the forehead of the Blue Demon. If he moved even an inch closer, he could directly crush its head with the force of the wind.

"Mr. Morikawa!"

After calling out, Shiori Fujiwara quickly came to his side.

But she was very self-aware and stood behind him, far away from the blue demon.

"I suspect it is a shrine spirit of the Abe family. May I ask it some questions?"

"Go ahead and ask." Morikawa Yu nodded.

He plunged the crescent moon into the blue demon's forehead and stared at it expressionlessly.

"Answer her question, understand?"

The blue demon roared, completely ignoring his words, and opened its blood-soaked, tattered mouth to bite Fujiwara Shiori.

Morikawa Yu took two steps back, directly protecting her in front of him, and slashed at its forehead with Mikazuki, stopping its momentum.

"Die! I won't answer your questions!" the Blue Demon roared angrily. "I'll make you all pay with your lives!"

It completely ignored the long sword in front of it and opened its mouth to bite Morikawa Yu.

The blade of Mikazuki instantly pierced its head, and a sudden burst of wind shattered its consciousness.

It stared intently at Morikawa Yu, then gradually fell silent.

Morikawa Yu looked at it, squinted her eyes, and was in a bad mood.

He received a plea for help from Fujiwara Shino and teleported over to rescue her, but this unexpected turn of events left him quite annoyed.

Shiori Fujiwara also fell silent.

She wanted to ask it why it was hostile to her, but its fierceness surprised her.

However, the name "Guiyi" that it mentioned before it died still gave her a glimmer of inspiration.

It is a demon and knows the secret techniques of the Abe family. It should be the messenger of the Abe family's household god. It is estimated that Keiichi is also the young master of the Abe family, Abe Keiichi.

She knew Abe Keiichi; when she arrived at the scene earlier, she had saved him by pushing him away from the demon's claws.

However, when she turned the car around and rushed back, she found that he had still died at the hands of the horned demon. She could only kill the horned demon in anger at failing to save him.

This pale blue demon wants to be buried with Abe Keiichi because it believes it killed him?

Fujiwara Shiori pondered everything that had just happened, a deep sense of doubt rising in her heart.

She looked at her sister and Tokugawa Maka and found that they had arrived. Fujiwara Shino hugged her with one arm, buried her face in her chest, and held her tightly without saying a word.

"I'm alright, it was Mr. Morikawa who saved me," Fujiwara Shiori comforted her.

Shino hummed in agreement, but didn't let go, holding her sister tightly.

Jasmine looked at Morikawa Yu with curiosity.

The young man just appeared suddenly and easily dealt with the bluish-white demon, saving Miss Shiori. He is clearly connected to the shrine.

The problem is that she has never seen such a powerful person at the shrine. Could it be that swordsman from Tokyo?

Her expression became complicated.

As a shrine official, she had absolutely no liking for this young man who was rumored to be favored by the shrine master.

However, he saved Shiori, and indirectly saved Shino and himself as well. The way he protected Shiori was even more handsome, so he didn't seem so bad after all.

She couldn't help but hesitate.

"Miss Fujiwara, do you know someone named Kyusaku, and who is Abe Keiichi?"

Morikawa Yu suddenly asked.

He had just used the Blue Oni as a "road sign" to enter the Path of History. He discovered that when the Blue Oni arrived, it had spoken with a person named Kyusaku before it flew into a rage and rushed towards Fujiwara Shiori.

Its rage seems to stem from the fact that the man named Kyusaku said that Abe Keiichi was dead and reminded it not to act impulsively, as its only task was to attract the shrine's attention.

Fujiwara Shiori paused, puzzled as to why he asked that question.

Morikawa Yu explained to her what he had just seen, using the high-ranking girl from the Awakening Clan next to Ryoko as a cover, claiming that she was the one who told him.

Fujiwara Shiori was a little curious that the high-ranking member of the Kaku clan could tell him this even though he was so far away from the shrine, but she wisely didn't ask and instead told him about Abe Keiichi's affair.

"...That's roughly it. Mr. Abe is the only son of the head of the Abe family, and Mr. Hisasaku is his elder, but he is not in the power center of the Abe family."

"If this guy called Ao Oni is really avenging Abe-kun, then he must have been tricked by Abe-kun's elders."

"The ancestral spirit of the Abe family has ruled the demon race for a thousand years, suppressing many evil spirits that refused to submit to its rule. He released evil spirits to attack Shino and the others, but Abe was among them."

"Abe-kun is the only surviving son of the Abe family head, and he possesses the aura of the family god, Seiro. The evil spirits will surely attack him first, making him their primary target..."

"Sister, when we were attacked, that horned demon did attack Abe-kun first, and then kept staring at him," Shino said in a muffled voice, holding Fujiwara Shiori in her arms.

“That’s it.” Fujiwara Shiori frowned in deep thought. “Although I saved Abe-kun once, he was still killed.”

"At this point, his elders informed this guy and advised him not to act rashly, but it was no use. That's why he became so angry, lost his mind, and tried to kill me..."

"Hmph, what a clever scheme." Fujiwara Shiori's expression gradually turned ugly.

"Although I just got back, I heard from my uncle that the situation in Kyoto is very chaotic."

“Our Fujiwara family has always been at odds with the Abe family. Now that Abe-kun is dead, I am also dying because of the Abe family’s household god’s messenger. His Highness the Shinto priest will surely blame the Abe family.”

“This elder of Abe’s is not at the center of power in the Abe family, so he will not be affected.”

"Once this is over, he can use it to his advantage and seize power... Disgusting!"

"What I hate most is all this backstabbing and scheming! If you're so capable, come at me head-on! Scheming against others behind their backs and using them as pawns, do you really think you can get away with it?!"

Fujiwara Shiori became unusually angry.

The near-death experience and the frustration of being schemed against at every turn made her feel an urge to pray to the gods to punish Abe Hisasaku and to directly attack the Abe family.

Morikawa Yu wasn't feeling too good either.

He didn't mind executing villains, but the Blue Demon was just a pitiful fellow who was being used and died without ever understanding the truth.

He gripped the Mikazuki sword tightly, and a gust of wind began to rise from its blade...

......

Inside the building, Abe Kyusaku looked in the direction of the ward office and put down his binoculars.

After hanging up with Aoki, he kept an eye on the situation over there.

Just now, Ao Oni angrily rushed out of his hiding place, chased after the prefectural police mobile unit's convoy to cause damage, and then Fujiwara Shiori arrived and fought with Ao Oni—all of this was witnessed by him.

But what he didn't expect was that the Blue Oni had used a secret technique that overdrawn his life force, raising his power to the level of a great demon, and so quickly driving Fujiwara Shiori into a desperate situation.

This worried him a lot.

Then, when Morikawa Yu appeared, saved Fujiwara Shiori, and interrogated Ao Oni, his heart finally settled down.

"He's here! He's here! Lord Qingyuan!"

Abe Kyusaku turned to look at the figure wearing a demon mask beside him.

"Lord Qingyuan, you..."

Qingyuan waved his hand, interrupting him: "I can see it, you don't need to tell me."

"Yes!" Abe Kyusaku immediately fell silent.

This mission was arranged by Lord Aohara. Whether it was releasing evil spirits to attack the officers' squad or sending the blue demons to fight, it was all part of Lord Aohara's plan.

Now that the swordsman has truly arrived, it seems Lord Qingyuan will have to take action.

Aohara had been observing Abe Kyusaku's expression, and upon seeing him like this, he sneered.
